When MuseLinoleum is on holiday, I find that working small and making piles of little goodies (i) enables me to continue to make things without committing to a large project that has great potential of becoming a serious yarn tragedy and (ii) this practice is also my way of telling that muse-chick that I appreciate her immensely and I beg her return (akin to leaving cookies for Claus). So, I beckon thusly...
...with a pile of signature
Monster Crochet Zombie Eyeballs (complete with nerve endings) crocheted from size 8 DMC perle cotton and a size 6 steel hook...
...and a few
Decaying Severed Fingers crocheted from leftover Koigu KPPPM and a size C hook...
I mean, what do you make for the twisted Muse who has everything???

I love these so much!!!!! I can totally see them displayed in a lovely rattan basket on the coffee table. (Much better than papier mache fruit!!)
I adore those eyeballs and hey, that one finger looks vaguely familiar =)
Among my life goals of seeing the The Great Wall of China and swimming in the Dead Sea, is my dream of spending just one Halloween at your house.
SQUEE!!! I WANT ONE!!!(of each):P
Classic goolieness, love them!
Holy zombie fingers, Batman!! I think I love these almost as much as the filet skeleton.
Those are awesome!!!
I love it! You are so clever! I must have several for my Halloween decor!
Oh they are great!! If you are that creative when your muse is on holidays what hope is there for me? Anyway also to let you know I tagged you, just check out my blog for details.
I love the "gaggle" of eye balls (what do you call a collection of eye balls?
Hahahah those are awesome. What are you gonna do with them? String them up on garland? Attach them to a big flouncy scarf?? Whatever... they're great!
awh that muse must be one tough cookie to coax! those are gifts of sheer genius and love!!! and with th nip in the air we are experiencing, seasonal too!
If I was your muse I'd be back just for those yummy fingers. :)
Ohh, these are great. Halowwen must be great at your house!
I am very sure your Muse will love them. They are brilliant! :D
Koigu for the dismembered fingers....excellent and colorful choice of yarn!
Those severed fingers are really cool. I'd show them to my husband but then he would want me to make some....
I am speachless...and that is tough to do!
Well, who couldn't use a couple more eyeballs and fingers to *spike* the trick or treater candy bowl this Halloween?
And I agree, when being a committment-phobe, do a lot of little things instead of one big scary one.
This is how I ended up with one thousand crocheted flower pins. And now what do I do with them? Stick them to gifts and hope no one says bad things about me.
Getting ready for Halloween, are we?
Even sans muse, those fingers are freaky cool!!
ahhh vaht a vundehver vay to express your inner goul...
I'm all for working small... and I'll have to pop back and check out the pics when they reappear. Oh! The anticipation!
take care, gracia

Hi Regina! Yes, there´s a yarn district in Buenos Aires. Yarn stores at both sides of three streets, one shop beside the other! I think it´s a Lady Linolium must! I wish you come someday and we meet and go yarn shopping together! ;)
Koigu severed fingers - what could be better?
Those are beautiful!
Gross...my grandsons will LOVE them...
